Synopsis: In a fantasy world, fighter Tatsumi sets out for the Capitol to earn money for his starving village, and finds a world of unimaginable corruption, all spreading from the depraved Prime Minister who controls the child Emperor's ear. After nearly becoming a victim of this corruption himself, Tatsumi is recruited by Night Raid, a group of assassins dedicated to eliminating the corruption plaguing the Capitol by mercilessly killing those responsible.

Akame is one of the members of the Assassin's group, Night raid. She is the first member to attack Tatsumi, and comes very close to killing him. She initially appears very serious and cold-hearted, but she is actually caring and worries about the safety of her comrades. She has a younger sister named Kurome, who is a member of the Jaegers, and loyal to the Empire.

She serves as a sort of big sister figure to Tatsumi and the younger members in Night Raid, often referring to herself as "onee-san". Despite the morally dodgy nature she can sometimes display, Leone is not one to tolerate injustice, and can be especially vicious to those who commit the most vile acts. She excels at gathering information and exercising calm judgement when necessary.

I see they skipped most of chapter 2, meaning they'll probably go through the abilities of the rest of Night Raid individually to make them stand out more. Eh, I can live with that. Still not much censorship, but the atmosphere is still kind of bah. Hope they can fix that when good stuff starts.

Reached the point where Esdese appears at the Manga and still no strong plot, they seem to just circle around the idea of being justice agents always waiting for the next opponent without a main goal... but I'll keep watching/reading due character design.

I've watched the first 4 episodes and really like a lot going on, the edginess is dumb but pretty fun. The quality of the action animation seems a little at odds with the super standardness of the rest of it.

No. Just some of them. Always root for pink or purple as a general rule.

Anyways, since I've read the manga, I haven't watched the show. Knowing what's coming down the road kind of kills the weekly format for me. I'm waiting to binge it sometime soon. Since the story is completely bonkers everything is fresh in my mind.

I can guess what happened this week that has people worked up. That was pretty shocking when I read it. I think it only gets better.

best seen in the classic "Shadow of the Beast"

I guess everyone is expendable in this series. Totally wasnt expecting it, and so early in the series as well. But then again, the first episode set a pretty fucked up tone for the rest of the series so I cant be surprised.
